What's the difference between packages which say i386 i586 and i686?
I have a PII 300 and SuSE 8.1. Which should I choose, given a choice?

Sorry, I got lost with the Athlon stuff. So it's i686 for me then no? But i386 and i586 is OK too. Just a yes or no please! Cheers, Steve.
Yes, if you want to optimize it for your CPU, the i686 is the way to go (this means for the Athlon family too K7 and newer). And yes, any of the others are fine too.
